Reverse Psychology

As I was playing with the kids yesterday, I was focused on tickling Penelope. Noah's strategy?

Noah: Mommy, DON'T tickle me
Me: Okay, I won't tickle you
Noah: Mommy, please tickle me!

Noah: Mommy, DON'T chase Noah (as he's running away)
Me: Okay, I won't chase you
Noah: Okay Mommy please chase me!

I don't always appreciate having my attention pulled in different directions, but this was a moment worth remembering. :)
